• On the left toolbar, find and click on MY ACCOUNT

• On the drop-down menu, choose MANAGE MEMBERS

• On the next screen, click on ADD NEW MEMBER

• Enter the person's email address and phone number so that he/she will receive confirmation messages

• OPTIONAL: Enter a user name and password

• If you need to any other people, click ADD NEW MEMBER again and follow the same steps

• When complete, you will see all of these people listed on your MANAGE MEMBERS page. At any time, you can log into your account and use the links on this "member" page to manage these individuals' accounts.

While still logged in to YOUR registration account, go back to the online registration page for the course. Then follow these steps:
